Topic: Muting not working
Gerben Koopman (Dec 02 2025 at 20:50):
I muted a user, but still receive their private messages. Am I doing something wrong? Or is this intended design?
It's nothing block worthy, just annoying, but would still be a nice qol.

Feel free to report the user to one of the zulip admins, eg me.

https://zulip.com/help/mute-a-user describes the expected behaviour of muted users. Were you still seeing them in the sidebar?
Gerben Koopman (Dec 02 2025 at 21:58):
It's specifically the fact that new private messages still appear as notifs and in my inbox. But like I said, more qol than worth a report for now. Thanks for the help. When I can provide more details for a ticket I'll let you know.

As in, you still get push notifications on mobile? Or desktop notifications? Or emails?
Alex Vandiver (Dec 03 2025 at 00:12):
If so that's certainly not the intent, and a bug we should fix.
Gerben Koopman (Dec 03 2025 at 09:01):
Mobile. But I'm afraid I have nothing reproduce or document.
Alex Vandiver (Dec 03 2025 at 15:02):
That report is sufficient -- we'll take a look.
